They aren't romantic enough? I guess they all have something to do with other worlds? A trip the author went on in the middle east, and it changed his life. So now he only writes about the way sand dusts his shoes, and then his bare feet. Like he's figured something out. All he's actually taken up is the expression in the originating language for "to have clean feet." They just aren't romantic enough. They just don't slow you down like they should, like Munro does. When you were younger, when you were in fifth or sixth grade the computer you wrote on had no mouse, their was no way to scroll back if a typo was found. So you would just hit the delete key until you got to the typo, then you rewrote everything you deleted. And you think you know, that it was always better the second time around. Now you could cross the bridge with style instead of merely running to see what was on the other side. Now when you're lazy you don't even bother scrolling to the typo you just delete the whole sentence and rewrite it all.Love that you have something in common with yourself 15 years ago. Then there just isn't enough time. You're reading something that isn't romantic enough, when you should be updating your website because you've had stories published. Because parts of you are forthcoming. This new tea doesn't actually make you blush, you just left the heater on too long and crave liquids when it gets this dry.
